Having problems with your Toshiba Satellite P105-S6104 Notebook ?

My Toshiba Satellite P105 touchpad and keyboard are not functioning. It almost seems that I have somehow locked or disabled it. I can plug in a USB mouse and get to my desktop to open progams and such but cannot type anything or move the cursor with my touchpad. I have: ckecked to make sure the touchpad is enabled, restarted several times, reset to previous working settings, removed the battery and reinstalled. Any other ideas?

Answers :

If only some aren;t working, attempt to clean it with compressed air (fter verifying that this is safe for your computer).\015\012\015\012If all of the keys aren't working then most likely this is hardware related. Faulty wiring replacement should only be attempted by a professional (unfortunately).\015\012\015\012The last thing that comes to mind is that someone spilled a liquid within your keys =P

I need a replacement power adapter for my toshiba satellite ps171u-11993h. I live in the atlanta, ga area. Need to know a price range for this and location or phone number to get one. Thank you. Also on my other toshiba satellite, my keys tend to jump around, go back to a previous place or just drop off its place while I am typing anything, do you have an idea as to what can be wrong?

The jumping around is you having your wrists too close to the touchpad, the touchpad is picking up signals from your wrists and moving the cursor to another area while you are typing. You can turn up the sensitivity on the touchpad properties to take ...
